The summer heat is near and this ride promises to be one of the last ones before the hot weather mania catches up as we all wave bye-bye to our favorite season for riding. We all ride from Bandra to Hotel Fountain, Dahisar & back on Saturday, 10th March 2012.

The route:- We all meet near Lucky's, Bandra and ride via Western Express Highway to Hotel Fountain, Dahisar & return back via the same route.

Suggestions:-

Come prepared for the ride by having a good breakfast and don't forget to carry your supplies like water, energy drinks, bananas, and energy bars.

It's always a great idea to carry a spare tube in case of punctures! Even if you don't have the technical know-how, there's always a good chance that someone in the group knows.

Three Most Important Points!

THIS IS A HIGH PACE TOUGH LONG RIDE FILLED WITH FLYOVERS, SO NEWCOMERS PLEASE AVOID!

RIDING WITHOUT "HELMETS" IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING! PLEASE WEAR YOUR HELMETS!
